And mig olerance Tearried A symphony orchestra is At Griflin's, One of the most charming pictures that has ever been seén at Griffin's| Theatre will appear there to-day,| Tuesday and Wednesday, when Mar-| guerite Clark stars in the Famous Players' adaptation of the beloved fairy tale, "Snow White," which is the Paramount attraction for the first three days of this week. "Snow White" was directed by J. Searle Dawley, who has presided over all of Miss Clark's most recent successes. It will be remembered that Clark starred in the stage aplatic: of the Grim Bros. tale under the per- sonal direction of Winthrop Ames at the Little Th@dtre, where the de- lightfu! play retained for two sea- sons. Mr. Ames very kindly placed himself at the disposal of the Fam- ous Players in so far as his experi- ence with the stage production was concerned, and Idaned the producers all the costumes which were used in the stage presentation of the story. Realizing how important the seven little dwarfs would be in the picture Director Dawley spent a great deal of time in obtaining the services of seven real midgets. The adaptation of a fairy story fdr the screen affords the producer an excellent opportun- ity to employ the art of photography in depicting with scenes and other mystifying phenomena which can be produced on the screen with the greatest possible effect. In this re- spect the photoplay version of "Snow White' will undoubtedly approach nore closely the fascination of the| original Grimm story than did the stage play, which was pecessarily limited in its magic effects. With the above charming photoplay there will be also be shown the final epi- sode of that popular serial, "The, Crimson Stain Mystery." . | At the Strand. For the first three days of this week a well-selected programme has | been chosen for this popular play- house. Lillian Gish will be seen in a new Triangle play entitled "The House Built Upon Sand," and has to do with an iron-willed man and. his butterfly wife. The play was written by Mary H. O'Connor, scenario editor of the Triangle studio. Ray Stuart, a new Triangle leading man, appears opposite Miss Gish. Charley Chaplin will also be seen in "The Vagabond," two thousand feet of fun and frolic. Other good reels and polite vaude- ville will also hold the boards. Canadian Casualties. Killed in action--K.
